This is my first ever pre trip report! I hope that I will be formatting it correctly!
With our DSs grown adults now and not so much interested in vacationing with us lately, my DH and I are thrilled to be taking our 18 year old great-niece Ali to WDW for the first time!!! She's not deprived by any means; her parents take her on countless cruises and other vacations, including Universal Orlando. Her mother, my niece, just doesn't like Disney *anything*. How can we be related?! Anyway, her awesome daughter more than makes up for it!!!
Ali loves EVERYTHING Disney!!
So our group is only 3 adults:
great-niece Ali (18)
Ali and I in this pic. I just love this girl!!
DH-John (50's)
and me-Terry (50's)
John and I at the Polynesian pool in 2015.
We're staying in a Lagoon View Club Level room at the Polynesian for a week. We love club level at the Polynesian. It's our home away from home.
Day 1:
We'll be arriving on August 24th, in the afternoon. The plan is to relax at the resort, get settled into our room, have dinner at the Kona Café, and watch the Electric Water Pageant from our balcony (if we get a decent view), or from the beach. Same thing with watching the fireworks that first night. Maybe swim in the lava pool while watching the fireworks. We have to keep reminding ourselves that this will all be brand new to our great-niece! She's going to love exploring the grounds of the resort.
Plans for Day 2 coming up next!
